Edina Quality of Life Survey

There are many reasons to love Edina: convenient central location, fabulous lush parks and greenspace, excellent city services, low tax rates, top school district in the state, quality housing stock and neighborhoods, a thriving Greater Southdale Area commercial and retail zone, high-quality medical services and hospitals, residents and businesses who invest time, talent, and treasure into the community…anyone could increase the list. But in 2011 and 2013, the residents themselves were asked to provide their feedback on the city, what they love, and what they’d like to see improved.
